My friend and I both have iaudio x5l units and are interested in the
possibility to play midi files with them. But so far we have no
success. Rockbox justs freezes while trying to play those files. On
the irc channel I was told that the problem might be because the
patchset is too big and iaudio just don't have enough memory. My
friend got a patchset that is just 8 mb in size but the problem still
exists.

So my question is:

1. Has anyone succesfully played midi on iaudio x5?

2. May using speech in rockbox actually prevent us from being able to
play such a files?

I don't know if this has been addressed yet in Rockbox, but for some reason
the H3X0 players will always boot into the Iriver firmware if they are
powered on while connected to the AC charger. What happens if you disconnect
the machine from the charger, power it off, and cycle it on again?

Hello All,
I have made .Voice files using the English.lang file, but it has been a
while, so I want the latest CVS build.
I have been searching the site, and cannot find it.
Could someone please send me a direct link to where the Lang files are?
Thanks
Glenn

I have the Iriver H320 and what is funny I just finished charging my unit
and when I turned it on it did the exact same thing. I went into the iriver
firmware. I just turned it off and turned it back on and all was well.

I just received an IPod Nano and am attempting to install Rockbox. I am following the instructions given on the homepage of Brian Hartgens.

I connected the Nano to the computer and had a sighted person set ITunes to enable to use as disk. I noticed that, when i found the Ipod in Windows Explorer, no music was shown - just calendar, contacts, and notes folders.

Hi Melissa,
Hold down the stop button for a longer period of time. Let it go and you
should hear rock box read the filename of the last song that you were on.
It's a bit sluggish, but you'll get the feel of it after a while.
Cheers,
Martin

Brian Hartgens breifly mentions it, and it is mentioned on the Rockbox
pages he links to, but I just want to be sure - you are using a first
generation Nano? The second generation Nanos have an all metal body,
and do not work with Rockbox.

Itunes hides all the music it places on an iPod. Your music is buried
deep in a hidden folder called ipod control.

If you just received it then there is a pretty good chance it is a second generation Nano which wont work with Rockbox. You can tell the difference in two simple ways the second gen has a metallic feel to its body and the edges are slightly rounded where the first gen feels more plastic and has square edges. If it is a second gen then you are out of luck.
